Product details

The Sigma 500mm f/5.6 DG DN OS (S) is an impressive telephoto lens known for its top-notch optical quality and versatile applications. With a focal length of 500 mm, it offers an enormous reach for photographing distant subjects such as wildlife, sports events, or landscapes. The lens features a maximum aperture of f/5.6, allowing for clear and detailed images even in low light conditions. The optical image stabilizer (OS) effectively reduces camera shake, which is particularly beneficial for handheld shots or longer exposure times.

  • PositiveIn addition to its robust construction with very compact dimensions and low weight, the Sigma impresses above all with its sharp images.
  • NegativeThe configuration of the autofocus or the user-defined switches on the lens are only available in the L-mount version, but not in the Sony version.

Telephotography made easy - literally. The Sigma lens combines high performance with compact dimensions and low weight. This means that the extreme focal length can easily be taken along on long hiking tours. The price is fair for what it offers.
